Wasting time is not one of my favorite things. We all have so only so much time and we can’t afford to have it wasted.
One big time waster is doctor’s offices. When I was kid and had to go to the doctor it would take forever. I would arrive about fifteen minute early and go up to the frosted sliding glass window and ring the little silver bell setting on the ledge of the sliding glass frosted window. It would take a minute or so and the frosted sliding glass window would open. A not so pleasant face looking out and asked me “Who are you” and I would proudly give this person my name and the time the doctor was to see, which about in fifteen minutes.
Fifteen minute my foot. One hour past then another and finally the frosted sliding glass window opened and annouced that I was to enter. I was shown to an examining room where I spent at least another half hour. Then the door opened widely and the doctor and his nurse walked in. After a few questions and a cold stethoscope put on my chest and back I was told to give this note to my mother and have her call him back in a couple of day if I haven’t improved

Now for the modern way to wait, just call any organization that that has an automatic message system. Here is how it might sound like. “Hello this is “X” organization and we are here to help you. Press one for English and two for Spanish. “Then you hear a list of option , thought they might have been changed so pay attention. You select your option and hear “All our companionate helpers are busy helping your fellow whatever.
If your’ lucky there is some good music and then from time to time a voice might tell you that you might be able to get your answer by going to their web site. I must say that only on few occasions have I wait for only a minute or to, the rest of the time its ten to twenty minutes. Isn’t modern technology wonderful
Here is waiting for you.
